Choosing The Right Waterproof / Weatherproof Case

To help choose the correct case for your documents, smartphone, GPS or tablet the first step is to decide on the level of protection you need. To keep this simple we have separated them into 3 categories.

Weatherproof: IPX4 + IPX5- These cases are ideal for basic protection and will protect from rain, spray and dust. Ideal for use out on the hill, travelling or super soaker battles!

Waterproof:IPX6 + IPX7- Providing a higher level of protection waterproof cases are happy with the odd dunking if you fall in a river or lake, perfect for scrambling.
